Battery discharging was greater than gas generation on Christmas day and each day since ... first time battery discharging has outpaced gas on the NEM ever?

@No_More_China Just wondering why you don’t use correct data on coal power stations ?
Currently globally there are 239 plants under construction (177 in China) while 1665 projects have been cancelled since 2010 (477 in China, 406 in India)

The more than 1000 job losses at CSIRO reflect a long pattern of underfunding by govt, who have treated science as optional.
We need research to build resilience and future industries.
Reversing the slide in national research investment has to start now.

The Liberal Party is poised to elect its first federal parliamentary leader from a regional seat since Malcolm Fraser.
More than 80% of its seats are now based outside the major capital cities.
In effect, both the Liberal and National parties have become parties of regional Australia, no longer electorally representative of the nation’s urban majority

... having lost (or looking likely to lose) in '25:
Moore, Bradfield, Dickson, Bonner, Aston, Menzies, Deakin

Also based on 2019 ACOSS report ranking wealth/poverty per electorate:
In 2017, Coalition held 2⃣4⃣ seats in wealthiest 36 electorates
=> by 2025 (based on those 2019 figures), Coalition holds only 6⃣ of those seats (Casey, Berowra, Mitchell, Cook, Hume, Barker) ...
English
To return to this view of history
In 2017, 5⃣0⃣electorates had 65%+ 'yes' vote for marriage equality, Coalition held 1⃣9⃣ of those
=> By 2025 looks like Coalition hold only 4⃣ (Casey, Flinders, La Trobe, McPherson) .. lost in '25: Deakin, Dickson, Moore

What's really interesting is the distribution of preferences, where the Greens climbed 10% to reach a 3CP of 23%, with Labor at 30%.
Both Ferres Miles and the Greens have run stronger campaigns this time, with the Greens having been door knocking here for over a year.

3 days to go, I can't believe it, I'm so excited!
Today I'll be doing some overviews of a handful of regional and outer-suburban seats in Victoria, where both major parties are experiencing challenges not only from each other, but from credible independents.

4 days left - Today, I'll be covering a string of seats in Sydney, stretching from wealthier (more Liberal) areas in the north, to working class areas in Sydney's west. 1/21 🧵
